Tarot And Its Meaning...

Five Of Cups

I pulled this one yesterday, I did not post it, it seemed too negative at the time even though it has its positive overtones. Yet it does really mirror my actual frustrations and mood.

They says it is darkest before the dawn.

Fear and peace can give birth to great hope.

I love you all and have great hope for you!!!

I guess it's as good as anything!

It provokes thoughts that sometimes can become stagnant and immovable...

King Of Cups


http://www.biddytarot.com/tarot-card-meanings/minor-arcana/suit-of-cups/king-of-cups/

King of Cups Tarot Card Meanings and Description

The King of Cups sits on his throne on a grey stone block, calmly in the midst of a turbulent sea and wears a necklace with a fish amulet. The fish is the symbol of spirit and creativity and represents the balance of the unconscious with the conscious. Behind him on his right, another fish jumps wildly from the tumultuous ocean, and, on his left, a ship sails steadily in the choppy ocean. These images are a sign that the unconscious has been allowed to break through and has been recognised by the King, yet it remains within his power and does not overwhelm him. The King of Cups does not repress his emotions and unconscious impulses but has learned to accept and deal with them in a mature and balanced manner.

My draw tonight.


The Sun is an image of optimism and fulfilment, the dawn that follows the darkest night. As the source of all life on earth, the Sun represents the source of life itself.

Sigh of relief every time I pick a card

Six of Wands



http://www.biddytarot.com/tarot-card-meanings/minor-arcana/suit-of-wands/six-of-wands/

Chrome says I have been to this link before, I don't remember picking this card before... huh, oh well.

I think I'd be nervous to pull a card for myself!

LOL!

There is a lesson here, to take the good with the bad in life and still be thankful for life. Every moment is precious.

If you can live through the ten of swords you can pretty much endure anything...

I agree, 100%!

I just drew the six of wands again...

really...... what are the chances of that?

I wait a month or so and draw again and draw the same card after shuffling many times.

It draws me in to make another selection soon. Maybe before the night passes i will draw another card....



The Six of Wands depicts a man wearing a victory wreath around his head, riding a white horse through a crowd of cheering people. The white horse represents strength, purity, and the success of an adventure, and the crowd of people demonstrates public recognition for the man’s achievements. The wand held by the rider also has a wreath tied to it, further emphasizing success and achievement. He is not afraid to show off to others what he has accomplished in his life so far, and even better, the people around him cheer him along...

Okay i drew again new card...

Knight of Wands...


The Knight of Wands is seen riding upon his horse, which rears up in the intensity of the Knight’s quest for success. The Knight’s face bears the determination of one bound to succeed. The plumes from the Knight of Wands’ helmet and the decorative tassels hanging from his back and arms are the colour of flame and he, like the Page, wears a shirt covered with the symbol of the fiery salamander.

Tonight's card pick

Three Of Pentacles



The Three of Pentacles shows a young apprentice working in a cathedral. In front of him stand two architects who are holding the plans for the cathedral. The apprentice appears to be discussing his progress so far with two architects and even though he is less experienced, the architects listen carefully as they value his opinion and his specialist knowledge. There is also an acknowledgement that this young man is an essential contributor to the completion of the cathedral and the architects want to make sure that everyone is on the same page.

WELL... I have chosen a dark card indeed.

DEATH



http://www.biddytarot.com/tarot-card-meanings/major-arcana/death/

The Death card shows Death himself riding on a white horse, holding a black and white flag. Death is portrayed as a skeleton as the skeletal bones are the part of the body that survives death. The armour he is wearing indicates that he is invincible and unconquerable. Indeed, no-one has yet triumphed over death. The horse that Death rides is white, the colour of purity. Death is therefore the ultimate purifier. All things are reborn fresh, new and pure. Notice even the bishop paying homage to him. All sectors of the human race are represented here – men, women and children – showing that Death does not discern between age, race or gender.

sadness and love

Next card, Ace of Cups...



The Ace of Cups shows a hand holding a cup or chalice that is overflowing with five streams of water. The hand that appears from the clouds represents our consciousness of spiritual energy and influence. Radiating from the hand are rays which symbolises that you must always trust your inner feelings and your heart to lead the way. This is your intuition and inner power talking to you. The five streams represent the abundance and power of the spirit and the effect of spiritual energy upon our five senses. A dove holding a wafer or small disc in its mouth descends from above, signifying the incarnation and appearance of the spirit in the material world. Below the hand is a great sea covered with lotus blossoms, symbolising the awakening of the human spirit. The cup has an upside down M or a W inscribed on it.

I picked a new card.

Knight of Cups

http://www.biddytarot.com/tarot-card-meanings/minor-arcana/suit-of-cups/knight-of-cups/



The Knight of Cups is seen as a young knight, riding along on his white horse, holding a cup as if he is a messenger of some type. Unlike the Knight of Wands or the Knight of Swords, the Knight of Cups is not charging along but rather his horse moves slowly forward, giving an impression of calmness and peace. The horse represents power, energy, and drive, and of course the colour white is a symbol of purity, spirituality, and light. The Knight wears a cloak covered with images of fish, the symbol of the spirit, consciousness and creativity. His helmet and feet are winged, a symbol of an active and creative imagination.

Today's pick peeps after a good shuffle

Nine of Pentacles



The Nine of Pentacles shows a mature woman walking in the midst of a vineyard. The vines are heavy with grapes and golden coins representing the fruitful accomplishment of all her desires. A falcon sits calmly on her left hand, symbolizing her own intellectual and spiritual self-control. Far in the background is a large house, presumably belonging to the woman herself. There is a general sense of peace, satisfaction, and the fulfillment of a creative venture or personal investment in the image of the Nine of Pentacles that offers a more permanent, lasting achievement as the result of one’s own efforts.

http://www.biddytarot.com/tarot-card-meanings/minor-arcana/suit-of-pentacles/nine-of-pentacles/

The Nine of Pentacles sometimes show a woman and sometimes a man but in this case I think (almost sure ) it is a man.
His face is broad and his hair is too short for a woman in those days.
But what caught me was that he is a falconer and I don´t think they had female falconers in the middle ages.

Tonight's Card: Eight Of Wands



http://www.biddytarot.com/tarot-card-meanings/minor-arcana/suit-of-wands/eight-of-wands/

The Eight of Wands shows eight blossoming wands hurtling through the air at a great pace. The flight of the wands suggests change, movement and travel. The background is clear, indicating that there is now little that stands in your way, and there is a beautiful river flowing freely and giving life to the landscape around it.
